Ingredients

For bread:

  • 1/2 c. granulated sugar
  • 1/4 c. butter melted
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 - 16 oz. tube refrigerated biscuits - I used Pillsbury Grands Flaky Honey Butter
  • 1 c. fresh or frozen blueberries

For glaze:

  • zest of 1 lemon
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 1/2 - 2 c. powdered sugar

Instructions

For bread:

  • In a large bowl, stir together sugar, butter, and lemon zest.
  • Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces.
  • Toss the biscuit pieces with the sugar mixture.
  • Spray a 9-inch round cake pan with cooking spray.
  • Scatter half the blueberries in the bottom of the cake pan.
  • Arrange the biscuit pieces in the cake pan.
  • Sprinkle with remaining blueberries.
  • Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown, and the center doesn't feel doughy when lightly pressed.
  • Remove from the oven, and immediately invert onto a serving plate.

For glaze:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together lemon zest, lemon juice, and 1 c. powdered sugar.
  • Depending on how juicy the lemon was, you may need more or less powdered sugar. Add enough that you have a thick glaze, but that it still drizzles.
  • Drizzle over the warm bread. Serve immediately.
